Reviews of Encountering Heaven and the Afterlife

Encountering Heaven and the Afterlife

This is a companion book to the authors’ earlier volume Heaven and the Afterlife which provided an in-depth, scriptural and theological exploration of the subject. Here we have around thirty reports from real people relating near-death experiences of heaven and hell, along with angelic and demonic visitations, ghosts and other miscellaneous supernatural occurrences. All are presented with minimal commentary for the reader to make up their own minds, though the authors attest that they have gone to all possible lengths to ascertain the integrity and reliability of the people concerned. James Garlow describes himself as a ‘doubting Thomas’ figure who never imagined himself writing this sort of book, but the sheer volume of reported incidents, the similarities between them over the centuries and across the world, and the known veracity of many of those experiencing them convinced him that the subject should be brought out into the open. There are possible psychological explanations for some of these stories – others have none – but this is above-all a God and Bible-affirming book, which acknowledges that “there are more things in heaven and earth” than we will ever fully understand in our terrestrial lifetimes.

Particularly impressed by Fiona on Customer Service. She responded quickly to my query. She provided very helpful correspondence during a previous transaction as well, which encouraged me to use you this time.- Andy, Lincoln
